Biotechnology and Genetic Engineering

This biology test is designed to comprehensively test knowledge of biotechnology and genetic engineering. The tasks cover key aspects of these topical scientific areas, including the fundamentals of molecular biology, DNA technologies and methods of genetic modification of organisms. The test also includes questions on practical applications of biotechnology, in particular developments in medicine, pharmacology, food industry and agriculture.

In addition, considerable attention is paid to controversial aspects of biotechnology and genetic engineering: bioethical issues, environmental risks and social consequences of the use of genetically modified organisms. Biology tests will help not only to assess the current level of knowledge and identify gaps, but also to prepare for a deeper study of this diverse and promising field of science.
